Poetry Is Power: Snow

 


Mounds of snow,

Pile up high,

Getting taller and taller,

Reaching the sky,

Falling to the ground,

Without a single sound,

The snow falls,

Piling up,

Its sparkling crystals,

Glitter so bright,

Just as the sun hits them,

Shining and glistening,

Just like a star,

Floating down to the ground,

Slowly drifting,

Down,

Beautiful,

It is,

Sparkling,

Shining,

Glittering,

Snow.

I’ve been checking in with myself on a concept I like to call The Gray. I am focusing on the gray as a way to meet situations I encounter in an open, honest and wholesome way. Paired with extreme ownership and radical acceptance, I am feeling more in control over things I previously felt discouraged…
